A contrarian opinion: DoE will never relent nor alter its stance against LENR ... at least not so long as there is a DoD.
Never, never, never. This is essentially why SPAWARS is being closed. They were only supposed to be a token effort anyway - but instead they got too close to exposing the shocking truth - with all of its neglected implications. In short, there is an offshoot of LENR that can be weaponized. At least that is the only scenario that makes sense in the big picture. Going back many years in the history of LENR, a few have voiced this minority opinion about ulterior motives. Big oil in not the intended beneficiary of "official neglect". The silent factor at the highest-level (in decision making relative to LENR) is explainable solely in terms of National Defense. This goes well beyond the problem of nuclear proliferation - and it is not necessarily 'nuclear' per se, but instead relates to extremely high energy explosives of any varieties. Even though the P&F 'meltdown' in Utah was under-publicized, it certainly was not un-noticed by those who look for these things. Never mind that the so-called 'red mercury' scare turned out to be an obsession of one researcher - Samuel Cohen. At least that is what we are supposed to believe. Even if 'red mercury' is now a generic code name for any ballotechnic, I think that there is more hysteria than ever before in top military circles about the repercussions of a tactical substitute, since detection is more difficult. Rossi has awakened these old nightmares from the early nineties. In short, the biggest threat to the West, in the eyes of a few at the Pentagon is not a nuclear weaponized Iran, nor even a nuke purchased by others who do not share our values: Syria/Libya/Yemen/Somalia/etc. Almost any sovereign country will have too much to lose to play that game. The biggest threat to the West, in the eyes of the Pentagon, is a non-nuclear or "nuclear-optional" (less detectable) but near kiloton capable weapon in the hands of the Taliban (or next radical terrorist group with access to plenty of cash or a substitute like Afghani heroin)... and by extension, a weapon which is deliverable in the trunk of compact vehicle by a surrogate group in our backyard- like the Zetas, for instance. Scary indeed.
